242. The Frozen Logger (James Stevens)

UR AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!

Well, it's a pretty amazing story anyway!

Nice rendition of a song I used to sing with my dad on long drives. But it's not quite the same without what I always thought of as the punchline. Now that you know about the lines you should redo the video.

Thanks. I might try it again sometime with those extra lines.

Is there another verse that talks about turning the loggers frozen body into saw blades or axe blades?

There may be, but I've never heard it. It could be a verse someone has added on more recently.

I googled and found these lyrics that are of the version that Bob Weir sang.
"It froze clear through to China, it froze the stars above
At a thousand degrees below zero, it froze my logger love
They tried in vain to thaw him, and would you believe me, sir
They made him into axeblades, to chop the Douglas fir"

Just had a look. It does seem to be a fairly common verse. Strange that I haven't come across it in the versions I've heard.

There for sure is

Thanks for that information. I had his name spelt wrong in the info.
